When I lived in Des Moines, I would serve Thanksgiving and Christmas meals at the homeless shelter. One of the most rewarding experiences I've ever had.

Not a whole lot of volunteer opportunities here in small town Iowa but I have delivered the Senior Dinners a few times since I moved back here and I used to check on my neighbor Frieda everyday..... that's not really volunteering but it sure made me feel good to do it.

There is a lady in a town about 7 mi. from here who spays and neuters cats at a very discounted cost ($20) to try and help keep the stray population down and I'm going to see if she'd let me come down and help take care of the kittehs she's got there at her shelter. Wouldn't be a heck of a lot different than spending the time here at home with my flock.
